             Bug #: 31129
           Summary: User without bot permission able to flag revision as
                    bot.
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: 1.17
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Page editing
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified


A vandal has been able to flag edits as if they were made by a bot on
en.wiktionary and en.wikiversity.  I was unable to do this merely by using the
API edit with an "&bot" on a user without permissions, so I suspect it is some
other bug.

The edits on en.wiktionary can be found here:
http://en.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?namespace=3&tagfilter=&from=20110924021000&hidebots=&hideanons=1&hideliu=1&title=Special%3ARecentChanges

Same user on en.wikibooks:
